(2) इस भावविह्वल कर देने वाली प्रेम की बाढ़ को लाकर, जब वे भगवान्‌ चैतन्य के आदेश पर, जगन्नाथ पुरी से बंगाल वापस लौटे, निताई ने भक्तों की सभा की बाढ़ लगा दी। पतित अभक्त डूबे नहीं, परन्तु फिर भी वे उस प्रेमपूर्ण परम आनन्दित भाव रूपी सागर में तैरते रहे। निताई गुणमणि आमार - श्रील लोचनदास ठाकुर द्वारा (2) Bringing this overwhelming deluge of prema when He returned to Bengal from Jagannātha Purī on Lord Caitanya's order, Nitāi has inundated the assembly of devotees. The fallen nondevotees did not drown, however, but remained floating on that ecstatic ocean. nitāi guṇa maṇi by Śrīla Locana dāsa Ṭhākura #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

They have forgotten Krishna, they have forgotten God, and I am trying to make them Krishna conscious. It is a very difficult job. I have to shed my blood three tons before I make on convinced in Krishna consciousness. That is my experience. I have to talk with them, especially these Europeans and Americans. They do not accept anything so blindly. Hong Kong, April 18, 1972 #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

At last Krsna showed Arjuna His two-armed form. Bhagavad-gita 11.50 After showing Arjuna His universal form, Krsna shows him His four-handed Narayana form in which He presides over all the spiritual planets. Then He changes to His two-handed form to show everyone that He is the source of the universe and the source of Narayana. #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

भक्ति का स्वभाव इतना शक्तिशाली होता है कि जाने या अनजाने में, जो कोई भी सेवा करता है, वह स्थायी लाभ प्राप्त करता है। Devotional service is so potent that knowingly or unknowingly, anyone who renders service, he derives permanents benefit. Преданное служение столь могущественно, что каждый, кто совершает его осознанно или нет, получает непреходящее благо. #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav

The Goddess Kali Protects Jada Bharata After giving up the body of a deer, Bharata took birth in a brahmana family. By the Lord's mercy, Bharata could remember his past lives and in order to avoid fall-down, he acted like a madman while internally he remained always thinking of the lotus feet of the Lord. Most everyone thought he was dull and dumb. The leader of the dacoits, desiring a son, planned to worship the goddess Bhadra Kali by offering her a dull man in sacrifice, considered to be no better than an animal. The dacoits found Jada Bharata sitting in a paddy field, and they thought him to be a perfect man-animal for their sacrifice. After the preparations for the sacrifice, the dacoit took up his sword and chanted the mantra to Kali, preparing to offer her the blood of Jada Bharata. Kali understood that Jada Bharata was a great devotee. Suddenly, the deity's body burst and the goddess Kali emerged personally, infuriated, and decapitated all the rogues and theives with the very sword with which they had intended to kill Jada Bharat #prabhupada #srilaprabhupada #spdailyquotes #krishna #devotion #bhakti #iskcon #vaishnav
